Friday night I had Anders (7) and Auggie (5) over for a sleepover while Gunther and Eliza went to a party.  Life is sweet.

They both worked on cardboard projects involveing string and Scothch tape and booby traps while I made tacos and refried beans.

At dinner we talked about why cave men used caves for houses (their rock tools wouldn't cut down trees) and how people start inventing things and life changes.  We read three books from the new batch I got from the library.  (NOTE:  I highly recommend a beautifully illustrated and extremely imaginative book, Flotsam, illustrated by David Weisner.)  I just found the link if you are interested. I'm going to buy one for Anders' birthday next month.)

After reading books, they popped into the bath, and then we watched The Country Bears movie. 

This happened to be the second time that Anders lost a tooth on the day he slept over at my house so the Tooth Fairy left two silver dollars on the floor next to his sleeping bag or bedroll as I like to call it!

Life doesn't get any better than this!
